I glanced at Caleb subconsciously, but he didn’t say anything. He just glared at me and walked straight to Janiya.
“Honey… I don’t know why Debra pushed me. Maybe I offended her somehow. I’m sorry, this is all my fault…” Tears rolling down her cheeks, Janiya sobbed and looked very pitiful.
Caleb Looked at her injured arm and frowned tightly.

“I didn’t push her, I swear,” I denied vehemently. Thinking about how Janiya framed me, I felt wronged and angry. “Caleb, she—”

“You don’t have any evidence! You can’t just keep me here! This is illegal!”
I was angry, but the owner ignored my pleas.
There was nothing I could do but watch Caleb and Janiya leave, like a prince in a fairy tale carrying his princess off into the sunset.
Just before they disappeared from my sight, Janiya slowly turned her head and Looked at me with a smug smile.
Caleb’s POV:
“Honey, it hurts so much…”
